Summary

Have you ever felt like you have the ability to make a greater contribution to your work, your family, or society, but you've run out of space in your life? Or maybe you've noticed that the busier you get, the less time you have for personal growth? Feeling like you have untapped potential is an epidemic in today's fast-paced culture. That's why I invited my friend and author of the new book 10x Is Easier Than 2x, Dr. Benjamin Hardy to join us in this episode. In this conversation, we discuss the power of developing inflection points in your life, why creating tipping points in your life will help you grow, and how these points will help you contribute more to the causes and people in your life that matter most. By the end of this episode, you'll know how you can reach more of your goals without burning out.

0:00.0	Welcome, I'm your host Greg McEwen, the author of the two New York Times bestsellers,
0:08.4	Effortless and Essentialism. And I wrote both of those so that your life and mine could become more limitless.
0:18.0	Because most of us feel that we have a greater contribution to make, but we have run out of space to be able
0:27.8	to do it.
0:28.8	I mean, have you yourself not felt that you had untapped potential, but you had no time left to develop it.
0:37.0	Maybe you've noticed that the busier you get the less time you have for personal growth. And it's for exactly that reason that I have

1:02.0	But as you'll hear in this episode, we didn't even get to that.
1:06.7	We talked instead about where things are for me, where things are for him, and what we are learning from that experience, especially the power of
1:17.0	developing an inflection point in your life where you can see a new version of yourself and can step into it so that you can achieve
1:27.8	really a tipping point in your life, a point to use Ben's phrase in this conversation, of no return, a point of no return.
1:37.6	So in this episode you're going to hear our conversation, some counterintuitive learnings, and I would say some actionable advice by the end of this

2:39.4	This episode is brought to you by Shopify.
2:41.6	It wasn't at the top of my mind that having an online store would be part of the journey, but as I built the
2:48.6	essentialism academy at essentialism.com, I discovered that understanding how to make that system as simple and
2:56.9	effortless as possible really matters. And so depending on your business, whether you're
